Goldman Sachs may be acquiring E-trade or merging with US Bank
Senior executives at Goldman Sachs have privately discussed the possibility of two major deals: the acquisition of retail brokerage E-Trade Financial Corporation or a merger with US Bank.

The bank may be seeking to shake up its retail banking strategy after encountering some headwinds with its proprietary products Marcus and Apple Card.
